Description

Yam Seng Lah! is a theatre and dining experience by the award-winning Dabble Dabble Jer Collective, in collaboration with Michelin selected (2023 & 2024) casual dining restaurant Curios-City, Penang.

In Yam Seng Lah!, audiences will dine on a menu creatively curated by Adrian Tan, culinary artist and head chef of Curios-City. The food pairings are intrinsically related to an anthology of personal narratives, promising a deliciously sensorial journey into the rich tapestry of shared-identity, culinary heritage, and Malaysian culture.

Through hearty generational recipes and the warmth of shared meals, Yam Seng Lah! invites you to a truly memorable experience reflective of the people who came before, and the people we are today.

Due to the nature of the performance, the immersive experience will begin when doors open, which is 30 minutes before the show starts.
Once the performance ends, audience members are welcome to mingle in the foyer. However, kindly note that due to the show’s weekend schedule, this may not always be possible and we kindly ask that audience members follow the production team’s instructions.
